LIBRARY SEARCHING II

Last week, you began searching in the Walden Library for peer-reviewed research articles on your social work topic of interest. What have you found so far? What is missing? Take stock of your search results and consider whether you need to adjust your search terms to expand your results or use limiters or filters to narrow them down.

The research process involves repeated consultation with the existing literature to understand what is known on the topic—and what is not known. The “not known,” in other words the gap, indicates the need for further investigation in the form of a research study.

For this Assignment, you continue searching in the Walden Library for three more peer-reviewed research articles. You also refine your use of APA style in your referencing.
